Here's what the humans have to say about me:
This is Bear.... the "Teddy" is silent! He is soo gentle and sweet that he really is a teddy bear! We believe Bear is a Flat-Coated Retriever (mix?) and only about a year-and-a-half old! When Bear was rescued from the streets he was not doing well. He was thin, (although it was hard to tell that because of his coat) had intestinal parasites, and heartworms. But, even with not feeling great and being very hungry, Bear was a gentle soul. He has since been wormed, vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, and treated for heartworms. His Foster Home is taking great care of him; so, he now weighs in at approx 55 pounds, his coat is gorgeous, and he is house-trained! He's good with the other three dogs in the home, and we haven't seen anything but sweetness from Bear! He's young, so he has lots of good years to give to the lucky family who adopts him! If you feel you can give Bear the home and life he deserves, please apply to adopt him by completing the online adoption application you will find near his pictures on our website: www.BaytownHumaneSociety.org Everyone needs a (teddy) Bear in their lives at some point!
